[Buildroot] [PATCH] package/libbsd: enable for non-glibc toolchains

libbsd builds now almost fine with a musl or uClibc toolchain, except
for one issue introduced in the latest version bump. Upstream commit
22fbd62368c39de8ac5e249d1502d5ac0ffdef30 [1] uses the glibc-only macro
`__GLIBC_PREREQ`. The issue is fixed by the attached patch from upstream,
which fixes the use of `__GLIBC_PREREQ` on non-glibc toolchains.

netcat-openbsd is the only package selecting libbsd. However, building
it still needs a glibc toolchain, as it uses `b64_ntop` which is not
available in musl or uClibc.

Build has been successfully tested with:
 * armv7-eabihf--glibc--bleeding-edge-2017.11-1
 * armv7-eabihf--musl--bleeding-edge-2018.02-1
 * armv7-eabihf--uclibc--bleeding-edge-2018.02-1

+Subject: [PATCH] Fix function declaration protection for glibc already
+ providing them
+MIME-Version: 1.0
+Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
+Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit
+
+On non-glibc based systems we cannot unconditionally use the
+__GLIBC_PREREQ macro as it gets expanded before evaluation. Instead,
+if it is undefined, define it to 0.
+
+We should also always declare these functions on non-glibc based
+systems. And on systems with a new enough glibc, which provides these
+functions, we should still provide the declarations if _GNU_SOURCE
+is *not* defined.
